MIREILLE SYLVAIN-DAVID is the daughter of Marcel L. Sylvain, Haitian playright/dramaturge (1910-1987) who authored famous 1946’s play “Loccocia” and polular song “Haiti.” Mireille, who is also a poet, has published two novels: “Il Faut Sauver Elizabeth” and “Pures et Troublantes Vérités.” According to Mr. Joseph Thevenin, Mireille “breaks with the linearity of the romantic novels. […] Her artistic writing talent suggests and requires from us an infinite prolongation of thoughts.” Mireille Sylvain David is a pillar of the Haitian–American community, providing the initiative for the founding of HAYO (Haitian American Youth Organization of Kendall). She also publishes a monthly newsletter that addresses issues faced by our people.
